Anime

Subway Boss Emmet's Eelektross

An Eelektross was seen in the Anime belonging to Subway Boss Emmet. It was first used in Battle for the Underground!, to power an old railroad car with Discharge. It is once again used in Lost at the Stamp Rally! to battle alongside Ingo's Chandelure with Cilan's Pansage and Ash's Tepig. Being far more skilled trainers, the Subway Bosses won the battle with Eelektross and Chandelure, as their Pokémon were fully-evolved and more powerful.

Manga

Like in the games, Ghetsis owns an Eelektross, which he used twice. The first time, he uses it to paralyze Black and steal the Dark Stone. Eelektross is called up again when Ghetsis battles Black in a 6-on-6 match. It beats both his Carracosta and Braviary with his Electric type, but is defeated by the shear power of Embor's Flare Blitz.

Trivia

Even though Eelektross is an Electric Fish Pokémon, it is not a Water-type.

Despite the fact that Eelektross is the Electric Fish Pokémon, it hops up and down on feet like appendages, instead of floating as if it is swimming like other fish Pokémon.

Despite having "no weaknesses" due to its Levitate ability, Eelektross can still be hit by Ground-type moves if the Pokémon using the move has the ability Mold Breaker or the Pokémon has used the move Gravity in the previous turn.

Despite some Pokédex entries saying Eelektross uses its fangs to shock its prey with electricity, it cannot learn Thunder Fang.
